Title: Chum Kandy
Post by: boneaddict on February 03, 2012, 10:44:54 AM: Well, not really......Kind of a hybrid of my own doing. Its my heavy water fly. Works for just about any salmon or steelhead. I tied it mostly for Canada Chum fishing....heavy water. Works as deaddrifting as well as swinging on heavy sink.

LMAO have not heard that since Alaska. I got hit in the back of the head from about a 15 yr old kid that was trying to throw a 3/4 oz sinker on an 11wt rod. Was not a nice day.

Post by: Smokepole on February 03, 2012, 05:03:54 PM: Nice flies, gents. Here's my old standby pattern. Caught more fish on it than anything else. If they don't bite it, well I guess they just aint very hungry.

Post by: Wanttohuntmore on February 03, 2012, 09:32:18 PM: Yeah, that orange caddis imitation works well both west and eastside. I am a sucker for a nice lookin' Dee or Spey fly. Good job guys.
